The example is exactly what I am wanting to do with a calendar of classes that our senior computer club offers each month.
The attached is a jpg of the original pdf class calendar. I plan to use image mapper to divide up the image so that a person can click on any class title and a description will pop-up.

I read your post about how to set up image map links with colorbox. But, sorry to say, it was petty confusing to me.

Can you give me some tips to getting started...a "dumbed down" starters guide.

Thank you in advanced for your help. I have used a lot of your information before to help me designing web forms.

Look at the source code by right clicking and selecting View Page Source. It's the easiest way to see how it's setup. http://progrowerhtml.coffeecup.com/imagemapper/popup/
Look at it than give it a try.
I added the scripts and links then add the inline class to the image map areas and altered the href to like this.

<p>The funniest thing about Pablo is he likes to talk on two phones at the same time. It looks odd when we see him walking around with phones on both ears, but he says it helps him stay balanced. We just wonder who’s on the other end of the second phone all the time.</p>
